February Recap

As I had predicted, February provided few opportunities to bird. I spent the first days chasing and failing to find the Winter Wren at Picture Canyon and took a quick trip to Page Springs in the middle of the month.

American Robin
Ladder-backed Woodpecker






The last two weekends were snowed out - we ended with 24.6 inches for the month, almost all in those two weekends. Consequently I ended the month having added just 8 species - 4 of these at my feeders! March will be better. Early migrants will turn up, at least in the southern parts of the state and Spring Break will allow me some time to get outdoors. I will aim to reach 190 by the end of the month.
